PANAMA CITY — Bubba White, of White’s Wrecker Service, has been having quite the holiday.

The wrecker driver has been busy this holiday weekend pulling stranded drivers from flooded roadways and ditches, White said.

“We’re getting slammed,” White said.

Business is booming under the thunder and lighting, he said.

“I think we’ve towed about 400 cars,” White said. “They’re in roadways, in ditches, retention ponds, even (stuck) in their own front yards. They’re driving and they don’t even know where the roadway is.”

White was back in his truck Friday morning.

“I think this is going to be a busy day,” White said.

Deputies have been helping stranded motorists contact tow truck services, mainly out on Front Beach Road, said Ruth Corley, spokeswoman of the Bay County Sheriff’s Office.

“It was intense,” Corley said. “They were calling a wrecker for them and moving on.”

BCSO doesn’t keep records of how many motorists have been helped locating a tow truck, but Corley said there were many such incidents — especially at the east end of the beach.
